Hi! This is about accessing the HttpConduit when dealing with WebTargets. I know from an earlier thread that one suggested solution is to use WebClient.getConfig(target.request()) to get access to the ClientConfiguration but I didn't like that way of doing it.
Initially, I thought it was possible to access the HttpConduit from a Feature implementation like this. public class MyFeature extends AbstractFeature { @Override public void initialize(org.apache.cxf.endpoint.Client client, Bus bus) { ((HTTPConduit) client.getConduit()).setAuthSupplier(new MyAuthSupplier()); } } And then use MyFeature like this client.register(new MyFeature()); WebTarget target = client.target("http://acme.com"); target.request().get(); But that didn't work. The MyFeature.initialize method was never invoked. However, I found out that if I implemented a Feature method with another signature, then that method was invoked. @Override public void initialize(InterceptorProvider interceptorProvider, Bus bus) { ClientConfiguration conf = (ClientConfiguration) interceptorProvider; //Nasty conf.getHttpConduit().setAuthSupplier(new MyAuthSupplier()); } As you can see, I was able to access the HttpConduit by use of a really nasty typecast. Spontaneously, I really think that it should be possible to explicitly access the ClientConfiguration in a Feature.initialize methods. What do you guys think? Are there better ways of doing this? -- View this message in context: http://cxf.547215.n5.nabble.com/HttpConduit-for-WebTarget-tp5773080.html Sent from the cxf-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
